Also, how long are qualifiers and Mains?

It's 17.5 Blinky, you can crank the motor timing to the moon, just no timing on the ESC. Usually 6 min heats 8 min mains.

Just got off the phone with Nick, Just a reminder 2wd SCT is Blinky and also 2wd buggy is Blinky and will be teched. 4wd buggy is open and I believe 4wd SCT is open also. This is going to be great race with alot of things to be given or raffled away. See everyone on sunday.

Those will work. The dirt is the same dirt as LITH, just not as smooth.

Ya know the really sad part....It has for sure been over decade since I have won an off-road race for sure.

On-road thats another story.....It would be when Aj's was open or when Lesiure hours was running carpet in Crest Hill.

I prolly should join up on the rookie side but my pride says to run buggy 17.5 just to remind mr bernicky there that he was always fighting for third while Dave and I were fighting for first.
